97 NJ Cats Suffer at Hands of Collector

When the Society received a call about a huge number of cats at a Hillside, N J home, it was beyond any other incident we have handled in the past not only by the sheer numbers, but the inaccessibility to various areas of the house to rescue over 95 cats. The numbers included pregnant cats, teen-age kittens, many nursing kittens that were inexplicably placed with mothers who already had litters they were feeding. Traps have been placed in areas of the house to continue to remove the remaining few that are there. All of the cats have been examined by our veterinary technicians and all were infested with fleas, ear mites and intestinal parasites.

The rescue has taxed the Societyıs resources and we are in urgent need of cat beds, cat food, rescue groups and adoptive homes. If you can offer help, please contact us.
